The staff was the best, special mention to Emerson in reception who was incredibly helpful and attentive. All staff was very nice (Rafael and Osario) always going above and beyond to make sure we were okay. Thank you all for your great service. The pousada is rustic and looks like a tropical paradise and it is great value for money. Good breakfast and really good restaurant options. But didn’t feel safe outside, really noise drilling construction work on both sides of the room, lots of ‘selling all sorts’ just not safe at night, really trapped in and lots of really nasty mosquitoes. Ideal for just a couple of nights if you can make it.

Place was ok. Would not go back though

I went to this pousada with a friend of mine. Room was small but overall clean. The pool are was nice. Breakfast was average at most. For the price we paid I didn’t feel it was worth it. The thing that make not go back for sure though was the lack of flexibility from the reception staff. On the last day the place was empty, they confirmed it would not be occupied but still wouldn’t let us do a late check in. Considering the high price for a place that was just ok coupled with that lack of flexibility we would not go back.

Good comfortable place to stay

Nice place to stay, nice comfortable rooms. Well located to the town and beach with parking at the front. Breakfast was nice if not amazing. The only real complaint is the price is very high for what you get but that’s typical of the area unfortunately.

Decent pousada

Room was extremely clean with very comfortable bed. Front desk staff were extremely friendly and helpful and there was one guy who spoke good English. Excellent breakfast and well located pousada for the main street and access to the beach (5-10min walk). Pool was fine but often in the shade. A little bit of traffic noise from the street adjacent to the pousada but not too bad.

Nixe werk in Bahia

The Pousada has everything you need for a vacation. It's rooms are clean, with a balcony, the breakfast is good, the staff are friendly and helpful, especially front desk. The swimming pool is good enough for a dip after a hot day on the beach. It's location is perfect, as it is neither right on the beach nor is it in the town centre. It's close enough to both though, so really convenient. The car hire is next door and so is a supermarket. We spent a very happy week in the Pousada and can recommend this place wholeheartedly
